Christmas. I didn't really care for it since I am Jewish and all. But Finn does and I kind of want him back. I mean it wasn't my fault he slept with Santana, and then lied about being a virgin. I tugged on the ends of the bow and passed the finished box down to artie.I stole a glance at Finn who was happily decorating the tree, his goofy lopsided grin showing proudly on his face. Brittany and Mike glided together as the rest of us sang Christmas songs. I looked up and saw Lauren was now wrapping presents next to me. I smiled at her.
I walked over to help put the last touches on the tree. "Hey guys what's this?" I looked over and saw standing there. "Oh we're trying to get into the Christmas spirit . Christmas is totally my favorite holiday" he smiled as I stole another quick glance at him. "Check out this awesome tree I found it on the side of the road it must have fall off some guy's car" he smiled proudly "and the ornaments? Mr. Schue asked again. "The guy who lives next door finally killed off his elderly mother, when they carted him off they left the house like wide open so, I think she was a holiday hoarder." Santana told him nonchalantly. "Uh and the presents?" he asked looking down. "I lifted them from a display at the mall, but don't worry they're empty" puck told him. "Look guys I appreciate the effort but this isn't what Christmas is about, it's about being with your family and enjoying each other and being grateful for what you have".
A few of us were putting little touches on the tree. I slowly let my eyes graze over to Finn. "Would you mind meeting me in the auditorium tomorrow at four?" I asked him. He cocked an eyebrow up. "Uh sure" he told me.
It was perfect. This song will do everything I need it to. Finn will realize how much he misses me and apologize and preach his love to me. Perfect. The fake snow was shuffled around the stage, fake colorful trees were placed haphazardly, and the band was warming up. "Now remember it has to be lush and romantic" I smiled looking at Finn who was now on the stage with me. He had his hands stuffed in his pockets. "Why?" he asked me "Because I'm very specific when I give a gift" I told him as he walked towards me. "So do you like my winter wonderland?" I asked him smiling up at him. "Well-"he said looking around. "-I don't really like artificial Christmas trees I like real ones and they smell amazing that's kind of the whole point" he told me. I smiled. "Right" I agreed with him. "Anyway-"I told him picking up the box on the stool. "Merry Christmas" I told him holding out the box to him. "Being a Jew I don't generally give out Christmas gifts but considering how much you care about the holiday I figured I make an exception- just read it" I told him as he fiddled with it. "The bearer of this note is entitled to one song with Rachel berry's choosing to him or her with love" he read out loud emotionlessly "come sit" I told him motioning to the stool. "I don't think so, I know what you're trying to do and it's not gonna work" he told me. "Not letting me apologize is not going to work" I whispered. "I let you apologize plenty and I know Christmas is supposed to be about forgiveness but I'm not ready to forgive you so please stop trying to make me" and with that he walked away.
"Should we like leave?" a band player asked me. I frowned. "No, whether it's a heart attack or heartbreak the show must go on" I told him as the band played the first notes of merry Christmas darling.
I wiped the tears from my eyes and went to my locker seeing I forget my world studies homework in it. I walked over to my locker; I had stuck a gold star on the number bar at the top of it. I grasped my lock, 23 left 45 right 67 left. The lock clicked open opening my locker and a note fluttered out. I looked at it with question. Who would send me a note all of the glee clubbers have my number in case they need help with any assignments of vocal help, Finn pretty much hates me right now, so it leaves no one, except my creepy stalker Jacob that kid needs to stalk someone else or find a hobby. I slowly bent over to pick up the note. I turned it over there was a gold star holding the note closed. Hm. I carefully slid the star off and opened the note.
I've just one wish
On this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you
P.s I would have gladly accepted.
